History Recap / AmphibiaS3E03TurningPoint

** When Sasha enters Anne's old room in the Plantar's basement, there's a minor ContinuityCavalcade of items and objects shells accused over her adventures in Wartwood, Including.

* WhyDontYouJustShootHim: {{Subverted}}. Grime and Sasha are able to escape from Andrias' throne room before he can personally deal with them thanks to Joe Sparrow, but he has one of his robots follow them and once its identified their current location, sends a small armoured battalion with a ludicrous amount of firepower after them to finish them off, depute the fact they've realistically little to no chance of upsetting his plans at this point. The MechaMooks the golden boss spawns to fight the duo don't seem to have any armaments or weaponry on them, but their role in battle is to overwhelm and pin down the target so the golden boss itself can finish them off. With it's [[{{BFG}} massive cannons]]. Straight to the face. [[ThereIsNoKillLikeOverkill From a distance of about ten feet]].

* Foreshadowing: Back in "The New Normal", Andrias told an unconscious Marcy that her 'friends' were about be be eliminated from the equation after sending the assassin after Anne, hinting he'd already done something about Sasha to remove her as an obstacle to his plans. It turns out in this episode that whilst she did manage to escape him, Andrias sent a massive robot armed with a ludicrous amount of ordinance and a small battalion of forces after Sasha that, if not for the interference of the Wartwood villagers, would have overwhelmed both her and Grime.

* RhetoricalQuestionBlunder: When Sasha turns down Grime's plans for an invasion against King Andrias, he is shocked, and asks her "Since when have you cared?" She sadly replies "Since I saw the consequences." This takes Grima aback for a second, and he softens his tone with her.

* ThereIsNoKillLikeOverkill: Sasha and Grime are alone, without their armed forces and armed with only their personal weapons good for hand-to-hand combat. Upon identifying their location, Andrias sends the robotic equivalent of an ''armoured tank'' containing a battalion of soldiers against them, despite the fact they cannot realistically pose any threat to his plans at present, just to [[MakeSureHesDead tidy up loose ends]]. The golden boss' go-to tactic when trying to take out the duo involves having it's deplorable soldiers pin down one of the targets so it can blast them in the face close-range with it's [[{{BFG}} massive ordinance]], firing heat-seeking missiles about the size of the average frog, and it's tough enough that Grime and Sasha have to resort to using it's own weapons against it to win. Suffice to say, Andrias doesn't hold back when trying to remove any opposition to his plans, major or minor.

* WakingNonSequitur: When Grime wakes up Sasha after she sleeps in the Plantar family barn, she quickly stammers out, "Who is it? Where am I? Of course this is my natural hair color!"

* ZergRush: The miniature MechaMooks the golden boss spawns don't seem to have any armaments or blasters attached to them like the taller model line Frobo hails from. Instead, their standard tactic seems to be using their superior numbers and grabbling limbs to ensnare a target and pin them down for the golden boss to deliver a point-blank shot to the face with it's BFG cannons, heedless of the fact they'll be destroyed as well. it almost works on Sasha before Grime intervenes, and then the Wartwood villagers join in to even the odds

: ComicallyMissingThePoint: A frustrated Sasha is already overwhelmed by the friendly Wartwood villagers, and finally snaps at a Maddie to leave her alone and runs away. Maddie thinks that she doesn't want extra carbs..

* SleepCute: Unable to sleep in the Plantar family home due to bad memories, Sasha choses to sleep in their barn instead with Bessie and [=MicroAngelo=]. When Grime wakes her up the next morning, Bessie has curled up around Sasha and she herself has [=MicroAngelo=] cradled in her arms.

* ChekhovsGunman: Similar to [[Recap/AmphibiaS2E36TrueColors his last appearance]] (which was chronologically only a few minuets ago for him) Joe Sparrow appears to save somebody falling to their death from Andrias' OminousFloatingCastle, and additionally also provides Grime and Sasha an easy means of fleeing straight to Wartwood, avoiding getting captured with the rest of their forces by Andrias' MechaMooks.

* NoNonsenseNemesis: Andrias again proves himself as this, sending the robotic equivalent of an ''armoured tank'' equipped with a battalion of soldiers to hunt down Sasha and Grime once their location has been identified, despite the pair of them basically being just two commanders on their own without any available forces to seriously counteract his plans. Despite being extremely capable combatants, Sasha was seconds from getting killed by the golden boss' ordinance before [[BigDammheroes grimes saved her]], and the pair of them aren't even able to directly hurt the massive machine with their weapons, having to resort to using it's own attacks against it to score a narrow victory.

* BigDamnHeroes: Grim shows up to save Sasha from being obliterated by the Golden Boss.

* DarkestHour: Grime and Sasha have barely escaped with their lives from King Andrias, and they're outgunned, outnumbered, and out of their minds; King Andrias is out to conquer Amphibia and invade other dimensions, and defeating him is a SuicideMission.

* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: Sasha returns to the Plantars' now abandoned house, finding Anne's journal in her old room and leafing through it, seeing all the happy memories her friend made without her and what she threw away for power and control, all of which came to nothing in the end. Her expression is [[BlindingBangs covered by her hair]], but it's clear that Sasha feels immense regret for how her controlling attitude ruined what genuine friendship she had with Anne.

* TragicKeepsake: An unintentional example. Anne's journal was left out in plain sight down in her old room in the basement, which, given she didn't think she'd be returning to Wartwood so soon after she left, means that Anne intentionally left the journal behind for the Plantars to have something to fondly remember her by whilst she reconnected with her old life back on Earth. Due to the events of [[WhamEpisode the season 2 finale]], however, the journal now functions as this to Sasha when she finds it instead.
* TrainingThePeacefulVillagers: The season 3 sneak peek and opening hint that, now they've lost their toad army and both of Sasha's human friends thanks to Andrias' machinations, Sasha and Grime decide to form LaResistance with the Wartwood villagers against the king and his mechanical army.

* WithUsOrAgainstUs: Andrias grimly asks Olivia and Yunan if he's with him or against him. The two newts nervously assure their allegiance to the dark king.

* ADayInTheLimelight: The fourth episode alltogether that centers on Sasha, Grime and the Toads.

* PerspectiveFlip: This episode shows the events of the last few minutes of "[[Recap/AmphibiaS2E36TrueColors True Colors]]" from Sasha and Grime's perspective, showing how they escaped from Andrias' OminousFloatingCastle and returned to Wartwood, as well as how the Wartwood villagers reacted to the reveal of Andrias' MechaMooks army.

* MeaningfulTitles: As the title suggests, this marks Sasha and Grime full HeelFaceTurn, as they decide to turn the citizien of Wartwood into LaResistance against King Andrias and his robot army.
